Jakster884 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I had a Polaris ranger and have sold. I am looking into getting an older VW Rail or just going with the new Kawasaki Terex. The ranger I was not feeling it to well and wanted something with a little more dune capability. Yes money is a factor for me. But my budget will allow to get the terex a Cage and a rear seat. All opinions would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Cheese Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) what are your requirements, like how many people need to be able to ride? what is your budget? you can pick up a used rzr S for about as much as a new kaw teryx just looking around, i saw about a 2k difference between the prowler 1000 and the 750 teryx...there was a guy on glamis dunes that was selling a 2009 rzr s for 11k I know what you mean about the ranger...ill never understand why anyone would take a motor out of a 500lb quad, put it in a 1000 lb pound sxs and RETARD the motor....

im337337 Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I know for me I would get the SxS. Unless you are buying a longtravel buggy anything less is just no fun at the dunes. We have 2 Rhinos and use them at the dunes, desert, mountians you really cant do that with a buggy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vw's are a headache and if you have no suspension they are a back ache also. dont get me wrong I have a buggy also but its no vw and has some suspension so its a blast to drive but it just depends on what kind of buggy and what kind of driving you want to do besides dunes.

Jakster884 Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 I thank you for your replies Peeps. I am going to pick up a buggy cheap and I am also going to be picking up the Terx. Both are the only way to go. I will not have enough room to bring them both but they will be for two different things. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Agent Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Judging by the people and families we camp with at the dune, the kids (and usually wife) will get instantly carsick and puke in the sandrail/buggy. Seen it all too often. They won't in the Teryx. The sxs's are great on Desert Rides too. The Slash X poker runs in April and Oct are fantastic, cheap family outings.
